• A. Only II and III follow
• B. Only I and II follow
• C. Only I follows
• D. All follow

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

Only II and III follow

Answer 2

As the state 'X' has faced a serious resource crunch and a depressing overall economic scenario the reasons for the failures should be studied to avoid such circumstances in future. Also its performance should be compared with that of other states which will help in analysing what growth rate is required to pace up.
The correct option is (A): Only II and III follow
